227. lefty, why do I feel like you accept Darwinian Socialism, AKA the law of the jungle???

Edited on Mon Nov-13-06 02:53 AM by Morereason

Surely you are jesting right? Most progressives want to see population steadied, but those "minimum wage "bums" (you seem to think of them as), could very well be far saner than what our society values. And besides, who are we to decide that one "skillset" is worthy of "death and despair" and another worthy of "reproduction"?

Darwinian Socialism (which is what your "Devils advocate" comment expressed), is not a civilized concept. Hitler believed in it... Progressives pretty much do not, or should not?
